FroggyCraft

This modpack provides a vanilla+ experience that adds new biomes, new and overhauled mobs, powerful tools, quality-of-life improvements, under-the-hood fixes, performance enhancements, and so much more. Oh and I almost forgot, the pack has a whole bunch of mods and other content related to frogs! I like frogs, and I hope you do too :]

If you have an older or lower power PC that struggles with demanding mods like Create or you want nothing more than frogs and performance optimizations, you might prefer the **FroggyCraft Lite** modpack – all the frog-related content from FroggyCraft with none of the extras!

Frog-Related Stuff<p>

Frog-Related Mods

- And tons more frog-related customizations and easter eggs implemented through special datapacks and _KubeJS_ scripts. (mod): lets you carry frogs in buckets just like axolotls and other aquatics. Warning: this mod is only compatible with the three vanilla variants of frogs, modded frogs from More Frogs 2 will revert to a vanilla variant if placed in a bucket. - %%MD1%% (mod): adds new block variants for froglights and froglight end rods. Also adds a bunch of new food drops, but that's not important, don't look into it. Remember, frogs are friends not food! - %%MD2%% (mod): lets you pick up frogs and use than as tools – their tongues can grab stuff from far away and drag them towards you. - %%MD3%% (mod): this mod adds new frog variants that will spawn and can be breed only in certain places (the nether, the end, the deep dark, above y=250), they have their own drops, with one unique drop, the Light at the End block. - %%MD4%% (mod): adds villager-like mobs called Ribbits to the came, frog people with their own villages, trades, special items, and fun behaviors. - %%MD5%% (datapack): showing a tadpole a slime ball causes a quantum-superposition/magic allows the tadpole to clone itself into an ageless tadpole – keep your tadpole friends in their cute tadpole form forever! - %%MD6%% (datapack): frogs will eat hostile mobs. Adds a rare frog variant, The ÜberFrog, an immortal, insatiable frog that can one-shot kill any hostile mob, never taking any damage - makes for a great guard-frog for your base. - %%MD7%% (resource pack): replaces the skin of the warm variant frogs with something a bit less sickly and pale. So if those pale/whitish frogs ever weirded you out, worry not - they're now a beautiful shade of bright, froggy green. - %%MD8%% (mod): now swamp villagers finally have a home, they get to live in a giant frog! Well, more of a frog-shaped communal building, still pretty cool. - And tons more frog-related customizations and easter eggs implemented through special datapacks and _KubeJS_ scripts. <hr>

Fun & Immersive Game Expansions<p>

Guide for Installation on Servers

The following is a step-by-step guide on how to install FroggyCraft on a server hosted by Modrinth, but the general points should be applicable to other hosting services:<br><br> <ol> <li>Join the FroggyCraft Discord and download the PATCHED_MODS_FOR_SERVERS.zip file from the pinned comment in the "troubleshooting" chat. Unzip the files to your PC.</li> <li>Log into your account on the Modrinth website. Start a new server or reset an old server and select the installation type "Modpack base".</li> <li>In the modpack search bar, enter "FroggyCraft", select the modpack, and set the properties you want for the server (e.g., game mode, difficulty, etc.).</li> <li>Under the "Options" tab you'll see a button labeled "Platform" – click this button and select the option to "Unlink Modpack".</li> <li>Under the "Content" tab you'll find the mods and datapacks associated with FroggyCraft. Disable all of the mods with the yellow warning triangle indicating they're client-side only mods with the exception of the mod "Athena" – do not disable this mod. In case you're not installing the modpack on a Modrinth hosted server, a complete list of mods to disable is found in the PATCHED_MODS_FOR_SERVERS.zip file.<br><sup>Note: You'll see that some mods have updates ready, but do not update any mods or it will likely break compatibility between the various mods of FroggyCraft.</sup></li> <li>There are three mods that need to be <b>DELETED</b> and replaced with patched versions – <i>Bucket of Frog</i>, <i>Re:Deco</i>, and <i>Structurify</i>. Make sure you <b>delete</b> these mods, don't just disable them, the original files need to be absent from the server before the patched files are uploaded.</li> <li>Click the "Upload files" button and upload the patched .jar files <i>Bucket of Frog</i>, <i>Re:Deco</i>, and <i>Structurify</i> found in the folder on your PC where you unzipped the PATCHED_MODS_FOR_SERVERS.zip file. The patched file names end in "FROGGYCRAFT_SERVER.jar" so as to avoid confusion with their unpatched versions.<br><sup>Note: Do not replace these mods with their patched version on your local client – FroggyCraft will run perfectly fine on your PC without any modifications and will be able to log into any server running the same version of FroggyCraft so long as the server's mods have been patched.</sup></li> <li>You're all done setting up the server. Start the server and try logging into it from your PC. You might get an error when first logging in, but just try again, and it should work (this seems to be a sporadic issue related to Modrinth servers). For trouble shooting, join the Discord and ask for help in the troubleshooting chat.</li> </ol>

Known Bugs

<ul> <li>Items in the hotbar might be invisible upon first login; open your backpack once to resolve this.</li> <li>Aquarium from Additional Fishing does not render vanilla fish/aquatics; they still exist and can be retrieved with a bucket but can’t be seen in the aquarium.</li> <li>If you rename an ÜberFrog and place it in a bucket, it will lose its special ÜberFrog traits and become a normal frog. This only affects the ÜberFrog when placed in a bucket; otherwise, renaming an ÜberFrog will not remove its special traits.</li> <li>The mods <i>Bucket of Frog</i>, <i>Re:Deco</i>, and <i>Structurify</i> have bugs that crash servers. To run FroggyCraft on a server, you'll need to use patched versions of these mods – links and instructions are found above in the "Guide for Installation on Modrinth Servers" section.</li> </ul>

Future Plans

Plans for FroggyCraft v1.2 or later:<br><br> <ul> <li><i><b><a href="https://modrinth.com/mod/pick-your-poison">Pick Your Poison</a></b></i> (mod): adds tiny poison dart frogs to the world, and you can lick them and get cool effects! For legal purposes: do not lick poison dart frogs in game or IRL.</li> <li><i><b>SpaceFrog's FrogCoin Currency</b></i> (datapack): pay for villager trades with FrogCoin instead of lousy old emeralds. Your server economy can also run on FrogCoin - FrogCoin for everyone!</li> <li>The modpack won't be updating to a version of Minecraft newer than 1.20.1 until the fabric version of Create Mod updates. Until then, I'll be adding mods that backport features of newer versions of Minecraft when possible.</li> <li>If you have suggestions or features or changes to the next version of FroggyCraft, let me know by joining the FroggyCraft Discord (see the link at the top of the page).</li> </ul>
